Abstract
The present study was carried out to determine the effects of different training systems on growth, development and yield of tomato cultivar of ‘Depar F1‘. Two different training systems were experimented (traditional system; 60×40 cm and wire training system; 200×40 cm during the cultivation period.
Plant height (cm), stem diameter (mm), number of leaves, cluster formation rate (cluster day-1), number of fruits, average fruit weight (g) and yield (kg m-2) were examined in this study.
Training systems had significant effects on all of the investigated parameters (P‹0.05). The highest average fruit weight (114.9 g) and yield (8.1 kg m-2) were obtained from traditional system.
